💥 ABBA BOMBSHELL: “She Was Disgusting”… Benny Andersson Confirms Awful Truth About Anni-Frid Lyngstad
A new tell-all exposé on the turbulent private lives of ABBA has dropped a bombshell, featuring a shocking quote attributed to Benny Andersson that allegedly confirms the agonizing details surrounding the end of his relationship with bandmate Anni-Frid Lyngstad (Frida). The revelation, if true, presents a harsh, previously unacknowledged narrative that has left the world shocked and re-examining the seemingly perfect harmony of the pop quartet.
While the marriage of Benny and Frida was always overshadowed by the more public drama of Björn and Agnetha’s split, the book claims that the emotional fallout of their own divorce in 1981 was far more acrimonious and damaging than previously understood.
The Sudden End and the Bitter Aftermath
Benny and Frida had been together for over a decade before they married in 1978, only to divorce less than three years later. The conventional history posits that the split was mutual, stemming from the pressure of fame and their diverging interests. However, the book features an alleged quote from Benny that paints a much darker picture of the final breakdown.
A source claims Benny, speaking in frustration about the period immediately following their separation, used strikingly brutal language: “Towards the end, she was disgusting. Not to look at, but her attitude, the way she handled the end of everything we built. It was cold, and frankly, it disgusted me.”
This quote—if genuine—suggests profound bitterness and disagreement over the handling of their personal and professional separation, contrasting sharply with the ‘mature and friendly’ front the band maintained in public.
The Pain Behind “When All Is Said and Done”
The shocking revelation provides a chilling new context for the final song they recorded together about their divorce: “When All Is Said and Done.” The track, released in 1981, features Frida on lead vocals, singing poignant lines about leaving quietly and hoping for peace.
The book suggests that while the lyrics speak of dignity, the reality behind the studio glass was filled with hostility. Frida, known for her passionate intensity, and Benny, renowned for his calm focus, reportedly clashed fiercely during this period. The song, therefore, stands as an idealized version of a breakup that was, in truth, fraught with resentment and heartbreak.
The complexity of their relationships and the ability of all four members to set aside such devastating personal friction to create music remains the enduring, often painful, mystery of ABBA. This alleged quote from Benny adds a layer of raw, uncomfortable truth to the story, confirming that behind the dazzling pop anthems lay the same awful, human anguish that affects everyone.
